Meet Catalina

Meet Catalina! Catalina is a sweet, mellow gal who is a dream to spend time and relax with. She will make a steadfast companion for someone who enjoys walks (with time to take in the smells!) and craves the comforts of home as much as she does.

Though you wouldn't know it by looking at her today, Catalina was originally brought in as a stray by another organization, who observed her to be extremely fearful while in their care. Now that she has spent some time with us at the Behavioral Rehabilitation Center, she has learned about enjoying people, making new dog friends and enjoying all that life has to offer a kindhearted gal!

Big fan of: Walks in quiet places with lots of smells to sniff! This is one of the best ways to bond and spend time with Catalina. She has shown fabulous doggy manners while on walks and doesn't tug on the leash. While her favorite activity is a nice stroll, she is also is a big fan of snoozing and taking it easy. She especially enjoys bully sticks, chew toys and puzzle toys with hidden treats because she LOVES food and working for something tasty. Catalina really enjoys living in her foster home, where she received rave reviews only one week after moving in! She wags her tail enthusiastically when her people arrive home, and she's proven to be an intelligent girl and a quick learner. She even befriended the foster's resident dog, who she gets along with beautifully! When it's time for bed, Catalina loves to curl up in a comfy place near her humans, like a cushy chair by the bed.

Working on: Confidence in busy/active environments. Catalina can be nervous on busy streets and active urban areas. She can also be nervous when meeting new people, but being able to go for walks with them and offering treats help her warm up quickly!

Dream home: Catalina would love to be adopted into a home where there are lots of cozy places to take naps, and bonus points if they can be naps in the sunbeams! She would love a home where it's easy to take on-leash walks, or with a fenced-in yard to wander around. In her foster home, she also seems to be housetrained and hasn't had any accidents. Though Catalina would do great as the only dog in the home, she would also enjoy life with other dog siblings! She has been expanding her doggy social circle and enjoys being with other dogs who are respectful but still playful. Just like when she meets new people, she does best with a slower, structured introduction to new dog friends. Taking a nice on-leash walk together has been a great way to get to know a new canine pal. She has made fast friends with dogs who initiate play appropriately, and she most enjoys playing without too much contact.
